PLASTERWORK
continued
Plaster Restorations can sympathetically reproduce original plasterwork,
either by hand-crafted manufacture or working purely in-situ.
We’ve also developed a unique and cost-effective system for re-securing
loose ornamental ceilings back to their original fixings, which retains the
original plasterwork while maintaining the historic integrity of the building.
Plaster Restorations can provide surveys and budgets and welcomes the
opportunity of visiting your offices or projects to discuss our system in
more detail.
